HOW TO DEAL WITH BEREAVEMENT - CONCLUSION

MOVING ON
Moving on may be a bit difficult. Sometimes it seems impossible but with God (if you believe in Him), there’s actually no such word as impossible. The easiest way to get yourself moving on is when you build up your faith and have it at the back of your mind that there is no temptation that has befallen you that is not common to man. Also, remember God’s word at all times that all things work together for our good because we love God. Remember God as the father of all comfort. Always ask the Holy Spirit, the comforter to help you when memories of the deceased makes you feel low.

Get yourself active. Occupy yourself at home, school, church or work. Always count your blessings. Try to see the ways God has turned that experience into an advantage for you. Never feel disadvantaged because the support you once had is now gone. Take responsibility for your life and learn from people. Realise that it is important for you to move on because your own destiny lies in your hands and not in the hands of your parents! They can only offer guidance but you have to make it happen whether or not they offer this guidance...
